The word ‘Geothermal’ comes from the combination of the Greek words ge, meaning earth, and therm, meaning heat. This heat manifests itself on the surface in the form of volcanoes, geysers and hot springs. Geothermal resources are concentrations of the earth’s heat, or geothermal energy, that can be extracted and used economically now or in the ...

Publisher Summary Geothermal energy is heat energy from the depths of the earth. It originates from the earth's molten interior and from the decay of radioactive materials in underground rocks. The heat is brought near the surface by crustal plate movements, by deep circulation of groundwater and by intrusion of molten magma, originating from a great ...
